I swear to you I have seen BBC news talent use the mics upside-down. In
fact, it drew my attention because the reporter or anchor was using a
double-mic setup with two small lavs side by side on a tie bar type
mounting on the lapel, and I could see the wires were running *up
before curving away behind the lapel, instead of down from the capsules
then around. I mentioned it in another forum, and an older guy who did
some work in England said yes, it wasn't unusual at all, for the
reasons already stated, having to do with picking up too much air from
the mouth and nose.
Aussies wouldn't bother to use mics in the first place; they'd just
shout louder;-)
